Derke never was the problem on FNATIC
It's more a fanbase opinion than anything else, Derke's departure was by mutual agreement, here's an itw response given to a French media
‘You felt it was no longer possible to win everything with Fnatic? Is that why you left?’
"There were other problems with Fnatic. It was my decision to leave, but there was a lot going on behind the scenes and it felt like there was going to be a change no matter what. And I had the feeling that by changing every single part of this team, it was going to lose its level... So I said to myself that if there had to be a departure, it might as well be my own, so that I could go somewhere else and build something new, rather than staying and having to start again from the bottom."
From what I understand fnatic wanted to make at least one change, Derke not seeing the point said even if it means benching someone do it with me.
What about reaching making finals in 2021?? What about staying relevant in 2025 unlike Aspas who wanted to pull a Yay with Bleed?
Derke is better than Aspas, Aspas can farm stats to delude Vlr virgin all he wants but people know with Derke's playstyle, him having high rating is lot more impressive than someone like Aspas with the same rating.
Only bums who don't watch games care about vlr rating lmao
Derke was and is always one of the greats of the game for me. People used to underrate him while comparing him to aspas, Tenz etc. No other duelist has come close to his consistency since 2021. Tbh, people kinda hated him and called his Yoru mid. But now that he left FNC, ironically 1000s of bandwangons erupted in his support and have become his glazers.
